title: [Health-related behavior and coping with problems by adolescents in relation to social change in new unified Germany].
abstract: Young people in East Germany are faced with problems specific to their development which are added to through adjusting to conditions caused by transformation. Psychosocial pressure, attitudes to personal health and resources to problem solving in interaction with each other form a significant part of young people's lives. They shall be represented in selected conclusions below. In a questionnaire of 1764 young people themes to relating attitudes to personal health, psychosocial pressure as well as personal problem solving were raised. A main concern of social change raised by parents' new employment situation hasn't led to any negative attitudes to personal health nor to social pressure which surpasses the results of other investigations. At the time of investigation (1993) young people have coped altogether well with the social changes.
